L'accueil de l'hôtesse & de la serveuse étaient impeccables .Elles ont été particulièrement attentionnées. En ce qui me concerne les petits pains pour les oeufs bénédictines étaient très durs. Les autres convives ont apprécié leur plats ( l'assiette Café du monde ,pain doré & bénédictines avec saumon fumé). Pour ce qui est de l'ambiance, très bruyant.

Visited on a hot Saturday afternoon to watch one of the World Cup matches & the vibe was great. The seating was interesting, from regular chairs to bean bags to tables in the pool. There's something for everyone.

The service is self-serve, you walk up to the bar & counter to order & get your food & drinks.
